Background

It was founded in 1882 as the Johor Bharu General Hospital, and has served as the city’s and district’s principle public medical centre since its inception. The present main building, a massive complex fashioned in a brick facade Streamline Moderne style, was constructed between 1938 and 1941 to replace the original 1882 hospital building.

The hospital was upgraded and expanded, including a two-storey lobby/emergency wing in front of the main building during the 1970s, and a new east wing and extensive refurbishment at a cost of RM 267 million in 2009.

The first public sector intensive care unit (ICU) in Malaysia was set up at the General Hospital in 1968 under the stewardship of the State Anaesthesiologist (Dato’) Dr T. Sachithanandan. Its ICU was officially declared open on 3 February 1969 by HRH Sultan Ismail of Johor.

The funding to build the ICU was derived from the Ministry of Health (MOH), Johor state government and charitable public donations via fundraising by the Johor Baru Junior Chamber International (JCI-Jaycees). The hospital’s unit became the model upon which subsequent ICU facilities were designed and built in numerous other MOH state general hospitals nationwide.

The first postgraduate medical center in Malaysia was also established at the General Hospital in 1969 by three medical pioneers; Dato’ Dr Lim Kee Jin (physician), Dato’ Dr. T. Sachithanandan (anaesthetist) and Datuk Dr. Sam C.E.Abraham (paediatrician).

The hospital would later be renamed in honour of Sultanah Ungku Tun Aminah binti Ungku Ahmad, Sultan Ismail’s first wife, following her death in 1977.
